“TYNK Kabutocho” opened its doors in Nihonbashi Kabutocho on July 4, 2026. This marks the first brick-and-mortar store for “TYNK,” a caffeine-free craft herb tea and chai brand that incorporates Kampo (traditional Japanese herbal medicine) wisdom and the blessings of nature. In addition to craft herb teas and chai, visitors can enjoy original gluten-free sweets and craft ice cream served generously with herbs and spices.

TYNK is a tea brand founded by Yasunori Tsujita, inspired by his own struggles with caffeine sensitivity, the sensibilities he cultivated while traveling the world, and his lifelong familiarity with Kampo. Supervised by Shigeko Yoshida, a Kampo pharmacist carrying on Japan’s ancient traditional medicine culture, the brand uses carefully selected plant-based ingredients to offer caffeine-free craft herb teas and chai. Fighting the preconceptions that “caffeine-free means flavorless” and “Kampo is hard to drink,” TYNK pursues a unique, irresistible taste that will keep you coming back for more.

The brand’s logo and packaging were designed by Simon Taylor, renowned as the founder of the globally acclaimed design collective “Tomato.” Since its launch in 2022, the brand has grown through collaborations with a diverse array of partners. 

TYNK is currently stocked in renowned hotels such as TRUNK(HOTEL), Ochiai-ro, and Soil Nihonbashi, as well as Barneys New York. Additionally, they have developed original blends for the Teshima Art Museum and The Kahala Hotel & Resort Yokohama. Today, TYNK’s teas are served in over 70 restaurants and cafes nationwide, and the brand regularly holds pop-ups at major department stores like Isetan Shinjuku and Hankyu Umeda Main Store.

TYNK operates on the concept of bringing a small “Pause” (a moment of space and respite) to everyday life. So why not stop by their inaugural physical store in Kabutocho and experience this unique worldview for yourself?
